This Basil Pesto Summer Squash Sauté is an easy summer side dish recipe that’s perfect for showcasing fresh seasonal produce!
I’m a sucker for a summertime roadside vegetable stand with fresh-picked goodies from a local farm, like peaches, tomatoes, or zucchini. Produce this time of year is top-notch in terms of flavor and nutrition, and the season is here and gone so quickly I always like to get my fill!…
This Baked Tomato Side Dish with Feta Cheese and Balsamic Vinegar pairs with just about any protein you pull of the grill! Or serve it up on toasted baguette slices or with crackers for an easy summer appetizer. In the summertime, my favorite way to eat tomatoes will forever be sliced with nothing but a sprinkling of sea salt. They’re so sweet and intensely flavored, it always makes me realize that the lookalike imposters available in the supermarket the rest of the year resemble real tomatoes in appearances only. However, there is no comparison in terms of flavor....
Almond Vanilla Chia Pudding with Peach Pie Topping (Low Carb Peach Dessert) needs just 15 minutes to whip up, babysits itself in the fridge overnight, and also makes a healthy breakfast!

Low Carb Almond Vanilla Chia Pudding with Peach Pie Topping is not only delicious, but a great use for seasonal peaches, especially if you’re looking for low carb treats....

This Pistachio Cilantro Pesto Recipe is fresh and bright-flavored and a little nutty, and a delicious change from a traditional pesto. Oh, pesto. It’s one of those things that I truly love, but forget about until it’s all I can think about. (The cravings are real once basil is in season.) If I played it right, I’d spend the final days of summer every year putting the last of the fresh basil to good use and freezing it so I could enjoy it throughout the rest of the year. And have you ever tried cilantro pesto? It’s bright and fresh with a pungency that differentiates […]...
Garlic and Herb Savory Keto Gluten Free Biscotti have complex savory flavor paired with the classic addictive crunch of biscotti and because of this they can be used any way you would eat a cracker! I have always been a fan of appetizers for dinner because it’s just so much fun to nibble. For some reason, in summer this seems like a much more acceptable option than it does the rest of the year (other than a few select days like Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve when a meal of appetizers is the norm in my family)....
Cool down with these 12+ Ice Cream, Nice Cream, Popsicle, Frozen Yogurt, and Other Frozen Treat Recipes; there’s something to make everyone happy!

Low Carb Spiralized Cucumber Salad with Peanuts, Basil, and Ginger Miso Dressing is a balanced combination of complex flavors and different textures. If we’re going to be friends, there are two things you should know about me. Firstly, there are some foods I can always be in the mood for. Indian is at the top of the list, and so is Thai. Secondly, I like to play with my food. And by play with my food, I mean experiment with flavor combinations and fusions of different cuisines (because it’s fun!). In this Low Carb Spiralized Cucumber Salad with Peanuts, Basil, and Ginger Miso Dressing, I […]...

One of the most quintessential summer foods is watermelon, and for good reason. Not only is it delicious, but it’s about 92% water. It’s refreshing, as well as a great way to help stay hydrated. And it’s fun! There’s nothing quite like packing a giant watermelon and slicing it up when you’re on a picnic or at a BBQ; everyone’s […]...
Swiss Cheese and Thyme Homemade Gluten Free Crackers are crispy with a slightly nutty cheesy flavor and a good thickness that makes them sturdy enough to serve with dip. Gluten free baking is its own entity. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley, and it helps give regular baked goods their structure, rise, and chewy texture. Baking without gluten can yield wonderful results in everything from gluten free crackers, to cookies, muffins, and breads. However, the key is to understanding which gluten free flours to use....
